Sometimes it's the smallest things. Do you put your stool as close to the toilet as possible? Also, you've got to be primitive about this -- no trousers, no underwear around your ankles or you'll be restricted from positioning your bare feet comfortably. I think I said my stool was about 14 inches wide? (I forget) But it's just wide enough.

When I was little I read a story about two new college roommates. One girl was very upset that she found footprints on the toilet seat. She called her mum who told her that her Indian roommate was used to squatting, rather than sitting. I don't remember what very forward-thinking magazine this appeared in, but I thought it was an excellent revelation. If only I'd stuck to the perching (I didn't know for stools).

Probably you'll be able to find one of those life stools on line. My colon therapist has them in her bathrooms, but honestly, I find them spindly. They put you in position, but I can't really put as much weight on them as on my stool. Perhaps with practice. But I'm not in her bathroom that long or that many times!

Persist, man! Remember necessity is the mother of invention! ;-)
